Meet Our Crew

Hi, I am Scott Bement, and I am the owner of St. Cloud Subaru. I bought the store in November of 2006, and moved my wife and our two young children to St. Cloud at that time. I grew up in a really small town in Northern Minnesota called Waubun (population 390). Waubun is also where my grandpa started a small Ford dealership in the 1930's. Later my dad and uncle took over the dealership and ran for many years. I am the last of seven kids; we all have had our turn working at the gas station/dealership/service station growing up. It was a great experience being brought up in an atmosphere where business was done with a handshake and a smile! I have it in my blood and here we are! We strive to set an atmosphere of a small town business with volume sales to make sure our prices are more than competitive, they are the best! I feel we have assembled the hardest working, earnest employees you can find. Welcome to St. Cloud Subaru, our family business!

My name is Bobby Konnight. I have been in the car business since 2001. I have been with St. Cloud Subaru for about 8 years. I have a very strong relationship with all of our banks. This assures that you will get the best rate available for your given situation. When I am not at work I enjoy spending time with my 5 children and my wonderful wife. I enjoy golfing, fishing, water sports, and spending time with my family. Come into St. Cloud Subaru and meet our high-energy, positive sales team where buying a Subaru is a truly exceptional experience.

"We've been working with Bobby and his team and I can't
recommend them enough!! Amazing person to work with and professional and
knowledgeable staff. My family and I will be clients for life!!"

My name is Peter Olson and I am a Used Car Manager for St. Cloud Subaru. I have been in the car business for about 9 years and I have been serving our loyal Subaru customers for 6 of those! I am a huge Minnesota sports fan and I personally enjoy golfing, playing volleyball and basketball. My favorite thing to do outside of work is to spend time with my friends and, even more importantly, my family. I live in the Cold Spring area with my beautiful wife, our two children and boxer, Lily.

"Peter explained everything to me and never talked down to me
or tried to pressure me into anything"

My name is Tommy Patton. I was raised in the St. Cloud area and I have been in sales since 2006. I take pride in providing customers with the best service possible especially considering the fact that I am a Subaru customer myself. I am currently on my 4th Subaru! I really enjoy working here because it has such a positive, up-beat, and fun atmosphere. Cars have always been a passion of mine. Everything from driving them to customizing them, and I love seeing others share in my excitement.

"Tommy was very patient and kind. He answered all of my
questions and made me feel like I was the most important customer."

Hi, I am Dan Vogel. I have been working in the car business for quite a few years now. It didn't take long after starting here, at St. Cloud Subaru, for me to realize I have never had so much confidence in a product before. Especially because I am such an advocate for anything outdoors which drives my passion for Subaru. It is the perfect fit for my lifestyle. Come see me at St. Cloud Subaru and I will show you why Subaru is perfect for you too!

"Dan, is a great and friendly person to deal with. He is respectful and
tries very hard to help us. He always answers our questions without
making us feel stupid. He get's an A+++"

Hello, my name is Jake Hallerman and I have been in the car business for about 12 years, with the last 6 here at St Cloud Subaru. In my free time, I really enjoy road biking along the Wobegon Trail, getting out to Cuyuna for some mountain biking or getting out on my boat for some wakeboarding! I sold cars for about 11 years and made the change to Finance in February of 2017. I am excited for this new adventure and to help you with the financing on your new vehicle. In the end, I love what I do and I look forward to coming into work everyday! I look forward to meeting you!

"Jake Hallerman did everything possible to make sure
that I was 110% satisfied with my new car. Went the extra mile to make sure I purchased
the best vehicle for my needs and at a competitive price."

of the car and its amenities. Moreover, I have never worked with a sales rep
